Threading doesn't increase complexity? Spoken truly like somebody who has
not had to actually write, test and debug proper, high performance threaded
code. Please tell me how threading doesn't increase complexity of any data
structure?
I may agree if you talk about php running in cli, but then the
As far as php side goes, it's a
problem of design of the apps. Just because people decided to go through
hoops to use the threaded model doesn't mean that it is any faster than
writing to the same thing in event driven model, event driven way is
sometimes much faster than threads.

You do all that in the context of a single PHP instance and linear code,
calling curl_multi handles its own threading, you just get back results,
you dont have to store it anywhere outside PHP memory space, and you can
configure timeouts and all that stuff, or you can regulate it yourself. The
